Any News on High pay Class Races for next year

B Parker · 10-30-2021, 09:44 PM

Anyone besides Ken with plans on putting on a Class race for next year. I hope the people that put them on last year plan to do it again in 2022. BP

Barry, I understand Bo has taken over Joey Bohanan's St. Louis race
date, and will probably move it 1 or 2 weeks later out, but get it off
Easter weekend for sure. He (they) will have the southern race again,
I wasn't told if that will be at South Georgia again. And the same group
would like to make it 3 races total, no other info on that. Everyone waiting
on Nhra's LODRS dates. I do know that Orlando has been moved to
the fall, which makes the Florida/Georgia trip a little less attractive
with current gas prices. Much easier to say the hell with gas, let's
go, when you can do 3 races.

Move Orlando to the fall? Can’t imagine why Ozzy would give up his early race. Bo doing a three race series sounds interesting, series championship would make it even better.

Jim can't figure that out either but it will take the place of the Rockingham race next year. Rumor has it that Silver Dollar will be back on the schedule also. I hope if they run the sportsman race again they do not put it on top of the NMCA race again.

BTW missed seeing you this year at the races. Hopefully you will be able to attend next year

Have run Silver Dollar with a fall frost on the ground so suppose I can do likewise with spring frost LOL. Like that track, downhill staging lanes don’t hurt either.

Whole lot forthcoming when the divisional schedule comes out, hope to (finally) do Ken’s race for sure.

Will be back in the swing next year, engine hiccup foiled this fall’s return.

Seems like a good way to mess up two races with one switch. That is puzzling.

I would like to see the SGMP Division race the week before the Baby Gators and make the trip worthwhile. Then Bo could have his race back there after the Gators National event.

Belle Rose is the week before the Baby Gators so I don't see that happening and NMCA is the week after the Gators so not a good weekend for Bo's race. Not only that but that is a lot of money to come out of pocket in just a few weeks time. We will see next week when they announce the Div schedule.

I've had a couple people say with the fuel prices going up its getting close to almost a dollar a mile to travel. Wonder if that will start to take a toll on people traveling far. At fuel approaching 4.00 a gallon and tolls, its becoming expensive to travel, so unless you are retired, or have unlimited vacation, its gonna be rough for some to drive to Florida 4 ror more weeks in a row.
I do hope it doesn't come to that.

Tyler and Brian are planning the 2nd annual class racers reunion now. It WILL NOT be on Easter weekend, planning on late April but date is not 100%.
